Feedback in Programmed Instruction and Text Material.

Abstract

Various feedback procedures are used in Navy training programs to facilitate learning processes. Unfortunately, the mechanisms responsible for such facilitation are frequently misunderstood. As a result, in both research and instructional development, feedback is often used inappropriately, thus neutralizing any positive effects it might have on student performance. The main purpose of this report is to review, analyze, and interpret results of studies performed on feedback processes, especially as they apply to written instruction and the design of instructional materials.
